THE CARTER CEMETERY Carter is located at Michie. Take Hwy 45 S from Selmer about 5 miles to the red light at Eastview. Turn left and go to Michie, several miles. Turn right at the cross roads of Hwy 57 and 22. Turn down the road beside Greer Egg Farm (not in business any more) it will be about 1/4 mile on the right. I have wondered how this cemetery got its name. There was once a Carter School here and as often was in the early days probably a church school combination. The cemetery has been referred to as Carter Schoolhouse Cemetery.

This is only the marked graves. There are many that are un-marked.
A special thanks to my sister, Linda Phifer for her efforts gathering this information
